::shrug::

[dubsupra209]

[supersupramk3]

Whats up fellaz. Finally some nor cal peeps are popping up. Im from Sactown drivin an 89T Black. Sorry no Pix!

[Igknyte]

nice thank you for linking me up to here. i see they have supra meets but that was last year in nov i wonder if they'll have one again.
yea i think matrixs are hybrids.. i think so.
thats funny they're only like a wat? 2.0 maybe 2.4 at the most? lol

i blew past this 240 that thought i was racing with him when i was just in a rush.. cause i was driving fast on the freeway comin off the bay bridge.. and all of a sudden i hear some muffler hella loud like someone was accelerating or at least trying to . i look over and its some dropped dark green 240 with a giant muffler .. he started weaving through traffic then got caught up behind traffic and i just kept going.. haha :wavey:

[Igknyte]

Sorry havent had time to take some decent pix yet. Maybe this week sometime. No this isnt a daily driver more like a weekend warrior. I drive a company vehicle 90% of the time and this is just for cruisin. Ive had the car for about 2 years now and ran a total of 1200 miles only. I know pathetic huh. Just finished overhaulin the whole engine about 4 months ago. Everythings cool except for an annoying little oil drip from somewhere (maybe cps)....pending to be fixed. Other than that runs really hard and pulls like a mutha...!

Thanx man, I always liked black cars looks real clean and aggressive when cruisin. yeah those are 245 in the back, still slippin and slidin when i floor it though. :drink1:

[mecevans]

i passed smog today!

[dubsupra209]

i passed smog today!

do you have cats....?

supersupramk3...i love black cars to the only thing about them is you have to have a clean body for the black to look clean....yours looks clean though dont see that many black supras...I thought those were 245s they look chunky on the back what kind of tires are they....?:beer:

[Igknyte]

lol i was suprised when i passed my smog. cause everytime i drove it the smell was so strong. but i passed.

Black cars are a pain. The thing is that with just a light layer of dust it looks 10X worse. I pretty much wipe it down before taking it out. My rear tires are BF Goodrich comps...they are a little beefier in the back. These were bought with the car and I cant wait to get a set of staggered deep dish.

[supersupramk3]

My buddy with a silver 91T just tried to smog his car. They told him he was a gross polluter. :1zhelp: Funny thing is that his car runs great, idles fine. I guess something about a small crack in the Accordian hose and EGR valve. Cali smog sucks.

How have you been Moe? Ive been doin alright man, cars running good. Just sitting in the driveway for now, I got laid off in Feb. so the Supra is on the back burner for now. Ive been taking care of it and keeping it clean, I had a date with some chick and she got drunk and puked in it, so, New seat covers, and I dumped her ass lol. I had it painted last summer, but have had some problems with paint defects (orange peel/ fish eyes etc). the guy is taking care of it, and I put a new sunroof in, so I hope to get it all shined up soon!

Oh wow..that puking must have sucked.. lol. Good to see you putting some time in it as well. I've moved on from the MkIII's t the lexus. GS. Currently running a GS with a TT2jzgte steup. Its pretty nice..

[staehlin180]

I heard about you moving away from the MK3's, thats unfortunate man. But, yea, some shampooing, lysol and fresh air got all the smell out..... Lesson learned lol..... Im still in the game, just not as much as I would like to be due to time/budget constraints, but I still cruise the supra around sacramento

[Rob_Supra87]

yeah i wish i saw more supras here in the bay area haha whenever i see a supra i get excited...then see that its in junk condition and being driven by a grandma haha

[ma71supraturbo]

Someone save this car: http://chico.craigslist.org/cto/1394959246.html

I'd buy it, but I don't need another project and I'm done with trying to part stuff out. The car is in pretty decent shape overall - driver's rear 1/4 has been previously dented (and pulled, but its a little wavy). Back seat is out because the guy had some big speakers there. Other than that it's complete. The guy has everything except the top two transmission bolts out but he got tired of trying to get to them and is just sick of it. So the engine is like 99% of the way to being pulled out already. Turbo has some shaft play and prob won't last long. On the upside, its a 5speed. 140K on the chassis. Good starting point for a build imo

[Igknyte]

turqoise supra turbo on sneath lane sanbruno,ca whos is this?

hey whats up norcal where everyone at?
hows everyones car doin?

[BorHor]

Go to SupraForums NorCal for more action. In the last year there have been less and less MK3s at the meets. Seems like they are all breaking down and going to the junk yards.

[MA71_Static]

We should have a meet, I was at the starbucks on Lawrence and El Camino one night and there were 7 MKIII's out there so unless there was one we should do it again! And same night at the opposite end were 5 MKIV's but they didn't come over. They were there till midnight talking with the car club that hangs out there then went for a drive up hwy 9

[4U2QUIK]

HELLO HELLO i JUST NOTICED THE THREAD HERE!!!!
oops gotta love caps...

[Hmong_1G]

There Jaw gears in sac. He's selling his mk3 chassis. Check youtube out. Jaw gears supra.

[lilazni3uoy]

agreed supraforums for more norcal action

[4U2QUIK]

yeah, but we gotta keep it rollin on here!

[MA71_Static]

Lets put together a meet and get the norcal supra community together

[4U2QUIK]

there's one going on around thanksgiving......

[Mk3runner]

at some point there will be a SM mk3 meet, I been thinking on getting one together but my new job is on top of the list.. gotta get paid lol.

[MA71_Static]

Very true lol, but a meet is definately needed. Evo's and sti's have no problem running into eachother but mkIII's are alittle harder to come across. Especially people who are into the cars and bought it cause they wanted it, not cause they found a car on craigslist for $600 to run into the ground lol

[4U2QUIK]

castlvania?

[MA71_Static]

I'm in San Jose, came across BorHor a few times and seen lilaznboi's car cruisin around

[4U2QUIK]

cool cool, I think I'm the only person in modesto that's on the forum. I know about 5 mkiii owners here in town abd about 3 mkiv's, and none of them feel that they have time to go on the forums...wtf?!?!?!

[Cycoclown]

whats up, names chris. im in vacaville(off 80 between sac and san fran, cant miss it) there once was 5 of us mk3 supra owners, but im the only 2 left. theres a cpl NA's running around.

Where in San Jose are you from? I go out every once in a while with a couple of friends to the milpitas meets.

[Igknyte]

[MA71_Static]

Theres a meet every Friday night, not just Supra's but theres a few that come out. The meet is behind the Starbucks on Lawrence and El Camino, LMK if your coming out so I'll be there. And its the first week of the month so there should be a decent turnout

[MA71_Static]

There's a meet tonight if anyones interested. It's at the place described in my previous post at 9:30 pm I'll be out there so look for a white 89 supra and you'll find the meetup spot. There will be a good turn out so try and make it out.

[4U2QUIK]

[MA71_Static]

The meet happens every friday night and the drives are the first and third fridays of the month, meet is at 9:30 PM and ends whenever we decide to leave lol

So the car club is Nocturnal Motorsports, they meet and drive pretty regularly. Good group of people, we should get some more MKIII's out there or anywhere lol http://nocturnalms.proboards.com/index.cgi Have to join to view it tho but its cool

[wetboosteddreams]

I was looking at a condo in Rocklin and saw two MKIIIs in the parking lot, looked like a 90 (Medium Red Pearl, targa, five-speed) and a 92(?) auto (darker red, I don't remember the name, obviously the project car). Anyone on here?

[BOOSTEDSUPRA]

im in turlock, but i drive all over cali to go to supra meets and drives. not too fond of the honda crap. but any force fed car is ok with me. hit me up anytime theres a cruise or meet.

[MA71_Static]

The turnouts vary lol but there's always a good size group there. It's not just supras but a few come out. There's a drive this Friday try and make it out. We meetup at 930pm lmk if you're comin out and I'll meetup with you

How are the drives like? do you guys just cruise around or is there a set destination?

[MA71_Static]

Set destination, we drive through the Santa Cruz mountains to Ferrals doughnuts and then head back from there. If we dont go to Ferrals we drive up Mt Hamilton.

[supersupramk3]

Wassup fellaz,

I know this is not the right place to ask this but...just going to take a shot in the dark. Does anybody here have spare 89t m/t ecu they wanna get rid of. Im located in Sac. Pm me or let me know...thx!

[Igknyte]

ehh only a 86.5 7mge one in my garage.. ;\ sorry.

saw a silver mk3 86.5-88 NA at colma best buy,

[4U2QUIK]

just an auto ecu here, but you can use it on a manual car.

[MA71_Static]

I have a 91T Manual ECU

[supersupramk3]

I have a 91T Manual ECU

Im not sure if the 91t is the same as the 89t. I think those are the same as the 92's. Do you know if it'll work? Imma do some research on it.

[MA71_Static]

It should work as long as you have a late model 89t

[4U2QUIK]

even the early model 89 is the same.

[supersupramk3]

I have a 91T Manual ECU

Are you willing to sell it? Problem is Im not sure if it's my ECU thats really bad or not. Cant get rid of my CEL code 21 O2 issues. Noway for me to test it, unless you guys know of a method to test ecu's.

[FIL]

easiest way to test it, is to swap it with a known good ecu...

[supersupramk3]

you make it sound so easy. :biglaugh: Wish i had another ecu to just swap in...lol!

[4U2QUIK]

you could just go to pick n pull and grab one. it takes all of 5-10 minutes to do.

[dubsupra209]

i have a 87 turbo 5spd ecu but i need grey plug ecu turbo 5spd if anyone is willing to trade straight across i would be willing to do that...?

[FIL]

you make it sound so easy. :biglaugh: Wish i had another ecu to just swap in...lol!

hehe.... i know the feeling... i swapped all sorts of bits when my ecu failed, because i a) thought they were responsible and b) could get them easily...

but yeah.... if you are fairly sure that is whats at fault, find someone local with a similar car and bribe them to let you test your car with their ecu... :)

i got lucky with mine, a mate of mine was offloading the same ecu i needed for $100... i just bought the thing on the off chance it would fix the problem, and it did...

[MA71_Static]

Are you willing to sell it?

Sure will, $60 and its yours

[supersupramk3]

Sure will, $60 and its yours

Where are you located at? Castlevania??

I am, drive tonight too! Been waiting for this one for awhile, MORGAN TERRITORY ROAD!!!!! Come out at 9:00pm (Meeting time) I'll be wearing the grey GRENADE beanie and black jacket

[M_31_07]

I'm going to make it out but probably not for the meeting or the drive. I'm going out with a couple friends around 9:30, probably just going to chill and grab some starbucks. So I'm guessing the lot will be empty tonight?

[MA71_Static]

Nope, we leave around midnight so there will be people there for abit.

[MA71_Static]

We're behind starbucks Between OSH and starbucks

[supersupramk3]

C'mon now you should know better. Stick with the factory three piece wing, no need to switch to the other wing every now and then:icon_bigg. Welcome to the forums.

[M_31_07]

my turn for a BHG.

Didn't you just get your car up and running? BHG is a pain, I had one in my first supra. Now just get the right MHG with some arp's torqued down right and you should be fine.
